The main problem with batteries,
. . . is getting enough energy into a,
. . . light enough package,
. . . to deliver a useful range.

Luke Workman says, to achieve serious long-range high-speed passenger airliners,
. . . 400-500 watt-hours per kilogram, is needed, and
. . . "I've come up with a battery design, that weighs far less and
. . . handles heat insanely well – it just requires a
. . . gigantic, flat surface area. Like, say,
. . . the oversized wings of a supersonic plane."
